Sicilian Grilled Pork Loin With Agrodolce Grilled Peaches Recipes

SICILIAN PORK WITH SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Brush the pork with 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons parsley and the fennel seeds, pressing to adhere.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning, until browned on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Scatter the garlic, tomatoes, raisins and pine nuts around the pork. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes are slightly softened, about 1 minute. Add the broth and bring to a simmer. Sprinkle the cheese over the pork, then transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and let rest; reserve the tomato mixture in the pan.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Drain, then add to the tomato mixture along with the remaining 6 tablespoons parsley; season with salt and toss. Top with cheese. Slice the pork and serve with the pasta.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH CINNAMON SUGAR BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl add the butter and stir until smooth. Add the cinnamon sugar, granulated sugar and salt and mix until combined.
• Heat grill to high. Brush peaches with oil and grill until golden brown and just cooked through. Top each with a few teaspoons of the butter and garnish with mint leaves.

GRILLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Cut the peaches in half and remove the pit. Slice each half in half and toss them in a bowl with the vanilla extract, almond extract, and brown sugar. Set aside for 15 minutes while you preheat a grill with a medium-high heat. Grill skin side down until skin is slightly charred, about 3 minutes. Turn and grill on the other 2 sides until you get nice grill marks, about 1 minute on each side.
• Divide the peaches among 4 bowls and serve with the frozen yogurt and toasted almonds, if desired.

PORK AGRODOLCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Brush a baking dish with olive oil.
• Whisk tomato paste, vinegar, honey, mashed anchovy, green onions, garlic, rosemary, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper together in a large bowl to make the agrodolce.
• Cut pork shoulder into roughly 3-inch pieces. Add to the bowl of agrodolce and mix by hand until coated. Transfer pork and sauce to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven, flipping pieces over halfway through, until pork is very tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Add a splash of water if pork appears too dry. Skim off fat as desired.
